Chapter 19 Re-enactment
Hearing the squad leader mention his father again, Furuya Ling quickly asked: "I remember your father is also a policeman, right?"

"Yes, he is the chief inspector of a police station in Tokyo. Although he is very thin and looks weak, I have always respected him..."

At this point, Yi Dahang's expression suddenly became a little gloomy: "Until... the day my dad took a vacation."

Under the puzzled gaze of Rei Furuya, Ko Date told the story of his childhood.

Many years ago, he and his father went to a convenience store to buy something, and they happened to encounter a bloody robber who broke into the store to rob.

Since there was only one kidnapper, he felt that his father would be able to handle it easily.

But unexpectedly, his father suddenly knelt down and begged for mercy from the prisoner, saying that he was willing to hand over his wallet and only asked the prisoner to spare their lives.

In order to cheer up his father, Ida Hang directly told the robbers that his father was a policeman.

Unexpectedly, after the robber learned the news, he became enraged and kept hitting his father with the wooden sword in his hand.

As the fight went on, the robber heard a police sirens outside the convenience store, so he stopped what he was doing and fled out of the store.

Idahang's father was hospitalized for a year after the incident and resigned from his job as a police officer due to his injuries after being discharged from the hospital.

He later found out that the incident was caused by a nearby gangster who lost a territory grab and wanted to get some money to escape.

Similar injuries occurred in other stores later.

It is for this reason that Ida Ko believes that if his father had been tougher and caught the criminal that day, there would be no more victims and justice would have been served.

After listening to Date Kou's experience, Furuya Rei fell silent.

He finally understood why the monitor said those words in class.

After speaking out what he had kept in his heart for a long time, Date Kou felt a little relieved: "I'm sorry, Fūya, for making you listen to such a boring story. Let's go back quickly after we finish shopping~"

"it is good…"

Before Furiya Rei could finish his answer, a sharp gunshot suddenly rang out in the convenience store.

--"boom!"

……

the other side.

Makino and his companions came to the motorcycle shop that Matsuda mentioned.

Although Matsuda explained his purpose to the store clerk, the clerk was unwilling to disclose the customer's information without a reason.

Unless Zhu Fu could tell the specific reason why he was looking for the man with the goblet tattoo, the clerk would not dare to disclose the customer's information at will.

After hearing the clerk's request, Zhu Fu recalled his childhood and suddenly his face turned pale and he stood there in a daze.

Seeing that Morobushi had lost his mind, Matsuda prepared to use "other means" to force the clerk to speak.

At this moment, Hagiwara Kenji suddenly shouted: "Ah! I remember it!!"

"Ah? What did you remember?" Matsuda was startled by Hagiwara's shout.

"It's about the squad leader's father! I remember when I was a kid..."

Under the gaze of Makino and others, Kenji Hagiwara told them what happened that year.

After listening to what Kenji Hagiwara said, Makino nodded secretly. This was basically consistent with the content of the original work in his memory.

Matsuda and Morobushi, who had come to his senses, nodded thoughtfully.

No wonder the monitor said that in the previous class, it turned out to be because of this experience.

After seeing his father, a police officer, kneeling down and begging for mercy from a criminal, it is no wonder that Ida Hang thought his father was a coward and has been brooding over it ever since.

After learning the whole story, Matsuda put away his cynical smile and said seriously: "I can understand the squad leader's feelings. When my father was arrested on suspicion of murder, people everywhere said that I was the son of a murderer."

"If it weren't for the seniors in the gym who kept encouraging me to believe in my dad and wait for him to come back, I would have almost hated my dad from the bottom of my heart."

After finishing speaking, Matsuda turned his head and looked at Zhufu Jingguang behind him, and said seriously: "Zhufu, I don't know what you went through at the beginning. Maybe it's useless for you to tell us, but we may be able to help you~"

Just as Matsuda finished speaking, he heard Morobushi muttering something in a low voice: "Need... help..."

"Huh? I just finished talking and you need help?"

Matsuda looked at Morobushi in surprise, but found that Morobushi and Makino seemed to be looking at the sign of a convenience store not far away.

At this moment, the lights on the sign are flashing regularly, like Morse code.

If translated into Morse code, it would read: "Help needed!"

After staring at the sign to confirm it, Zhu Fu turned his head to look at Makino and the others, and asked uncertainly: "Does this look a bit like a distress signal?"

"It's not like... this is it." Matsuda and Hagiwara's expressions suddenly became solemn.

Makino took a closer look at the truck not far from the convenience store and squinted his eyes and said, "It seems that the incident from that year has happened again..."

Hearing what Makino said, Matsuda and the other two immediately widened their eyes.

Although they didn't know why Makino thought the people asking for help were the squad leader and Furuya, they were roughly certain that there must be someone from the police academy in the convenience store.

Because this convenience store is not far from the police academy, and the "Morse Code" is exactly what they learned in class some time ago...

Matsuda said nervously, "Makino, what should we do? How about I go inside and observe the situation first?"

Makino shook his head. "No, if it was just an ordinary thief, there would be no need to send a signal for help. Also, look over there..."

Matsuda and his companions followed Makino's gaze and saw the truck parked not far from the convenience store. They immediately understood what Makino wanted to express.

There might be more than one thief...or criminal in the store! Maybe even many!

The next moment, Matsuda and the others nodded and quickly returned to school with Makino.

Looking at Matsuda and the other two around him, Makino couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

As expected of the “Police Academy Five”, even Matsuda, who is least likely to use his brain to think, has such clear thinking.

There are some things that, even if they are not stated explicitly, everyone can understand and act on them immediately.

No wonder people always say that dealing with smart people saves worry and effort...

……

At the same time, inside a convenience store.

Several armed thugs tied the hands of all the customers and locked them up in the store's office.

Date Kou and Furuya Rei found a way to untie the ropes on their hands, but they couldn't think of a way to escape.

In addition to the two of them, several other guests were also locked up.

The office had been locked, so it was difficult to escape. Plus, there were so many guests here that the two of them couldn't think of any way to escape for a while.

Furiya Rei looked at the locked door handle and fell into deep thought.

If I could pick the lock myself, could I turn this situation around?
But...there is no way such a course would be available in the police academy.

Which good person wants to learn how to pick locks?
